Praia do Carvalho Beach, Lagoa, Algarve

Be amazed by the natural beauty of this beach in Lagoa, with its tunnel in the rock.

The profile of this area of coast in Lagoa, Algarve, forms a kind of narrow “V,” with the interior featuring a small but welcoming sandy area surrounded by walls with ochre tones.

Access to the Praia do Carvalho Beach is made through a tunnel excavated in the rock where vast amounts of fossils can be seen. The tunnel, in the very cliff, is manmade and features several porticos, and even has space for a bar, .

The canyon before the beach is truly lush and many vegetable species can be spotted: juniperus, pistacia, or the only palm native to Europe.
